This blog was set up for the spreads that I do in my daily life art journal. It is simply a Mead Composition notebook where most of the pages have been transformed with acrylic paint, rubber stamps, magazine clippings, bits of my calligraphy, and my writing about whatever happened to me that day.

Fun Day!

While whining to myself in my journal about having to have a pap test and a teeth-cleaning on the same day, I spotted a picture of some burqu clad women that was laying on my art table. This was left over from an altered book project, and it jolted me with the realization that I am so fortunate to have access to good health care.

Isn't that the truth! I treasure the healthcare that we have access to---even if the costs go up every year... yadda yadda... at least it's there. :) I guess it's good in away that you got two ickies done and over with in one day.

I looked at all your pages and they are beautiful!! I really need to get back to my journal. The hard part for me is the writing. I really looked forward to writing in it every night but life had to interrupt. Life has a way of doing that sometimes!

About Me

My first love in the world of art was calligraphy. I have studied with more than 60 instructors. This led me to various other art pursuits including watercolor, rubber-stamping, book-making, and art journaling. I am now retired and free to play with all kinds of art techniques, but spent 31 years as a classroom teacher and school librarian.
